Spectroscopy is a fundamental tool for the investigation of physical conditions in astronomical objects. Up to the present a considerable amount of information has been collected, which could be of great help in research in all fields of Astrophysics. There is however the problem of safeguarding such material, to create ad hoc archives of raw and/or reduced spectral data, and to have homogenised means of documentation and of distribution of the material to the Astronomical Community. These problems were discussed by members of the IAU Commission 29, Stellar Spectra, during the 21st IAU General Assembly, and the results are herewith summarized.
